Who said winter warmers can’t be fun! Inspired by the super-cute sausage dog,

this scarf will keep your little one cosy, whilst giving them something to smile

about. Alternatively, if you know an adult dog lover who would appreciate a novelty

Christmas gift, just keep working the scarf section until you are happy with the length.

Stufing a

TOY

In order to successfully

stuf your sausage dog, it is

essential that you tease out

your stuing beforehand.

This will prevent unsightly

lumps and bumps. Another

tip is to take your time.

You need to strike the

perfect balance between

over and under stuing

your project, so don’t be

afraid to start again if your

scarf doesn’t sit right.
